Toe undersigned raisin growers OF san Diego
county respectfully represent that we are be-
lulSsleu Will the TdNdStS pI tHal pest
known as the " bee," to the great detrimenG of
raising the raisin.
First-1he lands that are adapted for the pro-
duetion of the raisin in this county do not ex
tend over twenty-five miles east IRON the coast.
Second-Inside of the above named belt are
scattering apiarieS, many OF which are in close
proximity TO vineyards.
Third-The honey produced in the valley por-
ton of this belt is not of a super or quality
Fourth-The county is large enough for both
industries to prosper
Fifth-The nnest honey is made in the east
ern and northern portions of the county from
thirty to forty five miles from the coast
Sixth-Our raisins are dried by solar heat, re-
ouring S met mes from thirty to sixty days in
curing, at which time the bees destroy them to
an alarming extent, and hundreds and hun
dreds of dollars worth OF raisins are DESTROYED
in this wsy.
Seventh-As yet they are not in sufficient
quantity TO be beyond control, but it is feare if
they are allowed to go without restraint, they
will SO accumulate as to make their removal
next to impossible.
We therefore respectfully ask your honorable
body to take some action looking to their imme-
diate removal from the lands that are adapted
for the production of the raisin, thus saving the
raisin- growing community from an evil which
cannot be removed if allowed ID exist much

The Coming Grand Ball Of the Veteran

For years the Volunteer Firemen protected our city from conhagration without pay or reward of any kind. These brave men are now organized into body known as the Veteran Firemen's association. This asso- citation is composed of the remnants of the old fire department. They are a jolly lot of good fellows who are going to have ball this season that will put to the blush, as they fully intend, all of their previous grand af- fairs. Let our old citizens who were de- pendent so long on the boys come to the front and see what can be done to make them happy. The public will no doubt iberally assist and contribute to the success of the event. The boys are to publish a beautiful souvenir, examples of which are now being shown. It is really fine work and will be preserved by all who are fortunate enough to secure 1t: A copy is to be given away at the fremen's ball to each ticket holder pres- ent.

 A number of East side residents complain that there are parties of boys about playing the tick-tack game. This game consists in placing slight weight suspended by string in such position that by pulling another string it will rap sharply on window. In case there is 8 commotion in the house 8 sharp pull on the string will bring the whole apparatus down and the boys seamper away. The only sure way to prevent becoming victim of the tick-tackers is to keep your blinds closed tightly over all accessible win dows.
 At the Hemingway ice houses there remains about one hundred tons of ice, and as this supply will last but few days the necessity for cold weather becomes apparent.

Choking Catarrh.

Have you awakened from a disturbed sleep with all the horrible sensations of assassin ciutching your throat and pressing tho hfe-breath from your frightened chest? Have you noticed the languor and debility that succeed the effort to clear your throat and head of this catarrhal matter? What a depressing influence it exeTts upon the mind, clouding the memory and filling the head with pains and strange noisesl How difficult it is to rid the nasal passages, throat and lungs of this poison ous mucous all can testify who afflicted with tarrh. How difficult to protect the system against it's further progress towards the lungs, liver and kidneys all physicians will admit. It is terrible disease, and cries out for relief and cure.
 The remarkable curative powers, when all other remedies utterly fail, of Sanford's Radical Cure are attested by thousands who gratefully recom- mend it to fellow sufferers. No statement is made regarding it that cannot be substantiated by the respectable aud reliable references.
 Each packet contains one bottle of the Radical Cure, ore of Catarrhal Solvent, and an Im- proved Inhaler with treatise and directions and is sold by all druggists for S1.
